About Mike Epp

I am a seasoned safety executive with 20+ years of operational leadership and policy experience in the transportation, manufacturing and logistics spheres. Recognized for demonstrating a natural aptitude for reinvigorating service efficiency, as well as for creating process automation and implementing best practices, I have a history of contributing to company growth throughout my career. Professional focal points include OSHA compliance, logistics service strategy, management development, personnel training strategy, process automation, employee retention, emergency planning, technology solutions, cross-functional team leadership, performance assessment, client relationship management, and project management. Delivering superior administration on the latter areas of expertise requires utilization of effective communication skills, negotiation skills, as well as business success, systems analysis, and resource management to support efficiency and maximum returns.Currently, I am the Environmental Health and Safety Director for an energy company. As a consultant, I drafted safety policies, processes, and procedures to ensure compliance with all EPA, DOT and OSHA standards, as well as develop and implement safety programs to reinforce safety efforts via process improvement and contribute to a system‐wide reduction of incidents and injuries. Also, I liaise with senior leadership, human resources, and local service teams to ensure the company’s safety support structure is driving productivity forward with minimal expenditures with organizations that I work with.Companies I have worked for describe me as a progressive, driven, down-to-earth, strategic and managerial expert who can be relied on to offer superior solutions that deliver profitable results on time and under budget.I have specific experience in the following areas.VPP Voluntary Protection ProgramEnvironmental Management systemsLEAN manufacturingTriageHaz-MatFEMA ICS 100,200,NIMS IS-00700.a, IS-00800.bTraumaCPR AED Emergency Medical responseAmerican Heart Association BLS Instructor trainer Train the Lift Truck Operator InstructorOSHA 30 hour Safety and Health trainingHazardous materials Operations 40 hour trainedDepartment of Labor SGERAB / QSA Lead auditor training ISO 14001Hazardous Materials Training & Research Institute – (HMTRI) 40 Hazardous materials Trainer, 24hr emergency response trainer.I am interested in contacting former colleagues, and managers, as well as other professionals in my field.
